Definitions
- the present invention relates to a thin battery with a laminate casing, wherein the electricity generating elements are packaged in a casing which is formed by superposing two sheets of laminate and joining the periphery thereof.
- Thin, lightweight non-aqueous electrolytic batteries with flexible laminate casing such as lithium polymer rechargeable battery are most suitable for use as the drive power sources of thin, portable electronic devices, and particularly of portable telephones that have become so popular in recent years.
- Figure 35 is a plan view showing a lithium polymer rechargeable battery as one example of a prior art battery with a laminate casing.
- Figure 36 is a cross-sectional view seen along the line XXXVI-XXXVI of Figure 35.
- a plurality of electrode plate modules 3 are stacked up to form a stacked electrode assembly 2, which is accommodated in a casing 1 made of a laminate sheet. Because of such flatness, the stacked electrode assembly 2, being enveloped in a laminate sheet casing 1, is advantageously used for constructing a flat and lightweight battery.
- the electrode plate module 3 includes a negative electrode plate 4 composed of a negative electrode current collector 7 and negative electrode mixture layers 8 formed on both sides thereof, a pair of positive electrode plates 9 composed of a positive electrode current collector 10 and positive electrode mixture layers 11 formed on both sides thereof.
- the positive electrode plates 9 are superposed on both sides of the negative electrode plates 4 with intervening separators 12 therebetween to form an integral unit of electrode plates.
- These electrode plate modules 3 are stacked upon one another to form the electrode assembly 2 shown in Figure 36 and to attain a required voltage or battery capacity.
- Negative electrode terminals 7a extend from one end of each of the negative electrode current collectors 7, and these negative electrode terminals 7a are bundled and welded together, with a negative electrode lead 13 welded to the weld joint.
- positive electrode terminals 10a shown in Figure 37 which extend from one end of each of the positive electrode current collectors 10 are bundled together, and a positive electrode lead 14 shown in Figure 35 is welded to the weld joints of the positive electrode terminals.
- the casing 1 consists of a laminate sheet, including a metal layer such as an aluminum foil for providing air-tight and liquid-tight properties, with a resin layer having a high melting point bonded to an outer side of the metal layer, and another resin layer of metamorphic polypropylene bonded to an inner side of the metal layer.
- the laminate sheet is folded in two as shown in Figure 38, and formed into an envelope shape by heat-sealing the opposite edges P1, P2.
- the stacked electrode assembly 2 is inserted into the casing 1 through the open end, liquid electrolyte is injected thereinto, and the open end edge P3 is heat-sealed such that the positive electrode lead 14 and the negative electrode lead 13 extend to the outside as shown in Figure 35.
- Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 11-288698 proposes bonding of an additional resin seat or a sealing material 17, by applying heat, to both sides of the positive electrode lead 14 and the negative electrode lead 13 where they pass through the open end edge P3, so that the portions of the open end edge P3 where the positive electrode lead 14 and the negative electrode lead 13 pass through are reinforced with the additional resin sheet 17 to have enhanced leakage-proof property.
- the resin sheet 17 a copolymer of ionomer, ethylene and acrylic acid, polyethylene resin, polypropylene resin, polyamide resin, polyester resin or polyurethane resin are used.
- FIG. 39 Another conventional battery employs a casing 18 having a construction shown in Figure 39.
- the casing 18 made of a laminate sheet similar to the one mentioned above includes a base part 18a, which is one side of the folded laminate sheet, the other side thereof forming a cover 18b.
- the base part 18a has a recess 18b for accommodating the stacked electrode assembly 2 therein.
- One advantage of this casing 18 is that, as compared to the envelop-shaped casing 1, the electrode assembly 2 can readily be inserted into the recess 18b of the base part 18a, with the cover 18c being widely opened.
- the casing 18 has seal flanges 18d, 18e, and 18f, and when the stacked electrode assembly 2 is accommodated within the recess 18b, the positive electrode lead 14 and the negative electrode lead 13 sit on the seal flange 18e and extend to the outside of the base part 18a.
- the cover 18c is then closed, with its two opposite sides being heat-sealed with the seal flanges 18d, 18f, and liquid electrolyte is injected into the casing through the openings between the remaining seal flange 18e and one end edge of the cover 18c. Thereafter, the seal flange 18e and the end edge of the cover 18c is welded to seal the casing 18.
- a resin sheet 17 made of polypropylene film is joined to the positive electrode lead 14 and the negative electrode lead 13 from both sides where they pass through the seal flange 18e end, so that the sealing property at this end will not be deteriorated and reliable leakage-proof property is ensured.
- One side of the recess 18b, at which the positive electrode lead 14 and the negative electrode lead 13 extend to the outside, has an inclined surface 18g, so as to accommodate the negative electrode terminals 7a and positive electrode terminals 10a, which take a triangular shape as they are bundled together at a location near the seal flange 18e.
- the stacked electrode assembly 2 inside is not sufficiently retained in position, because it is accommodated within the casing made of a flexible laminate sheet with a certain gap provided. in the direction parallel with the direction of the two extending leads 13, 14.
- continuous vibration transmitted from the portable electronic equipment in which the battery is installed may cause the stacked electrode assembly 2 to displace within the casing 1 or 18, resulting in offsetting of the stacked electrode plate modules 3.
- Displacement of the stacked electrode assembly 2 or offsetting of the stacked electrode plates 3 give rise to various problems.
- the joints between the negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14 and their respective terminals 7a, 10a, and the joints between the leads and the casing 1, 18, which are mechanically weak may be subjected to repeated bending, resulting in deformation or disconnection in these portions.
- the casing 1, 18 is also constantly subjected to the risk of being damaged by pointed edges or burrs on the electrode assembly 2.
- the intermediate metal layer of the laminate sheet casing 1, 18 may contact the electrode assembly 2, whereby a local cell is formed due to the intervening electrolyte, resulting in development of gas, or short-circuiting across electrodes 9, 4 or terminals 7a, 10a of opposite polarity.
- Portable phones in particular, in which such battery with laminate casing is used commonly, are carried about in the pockets of clothing or in brief cases, so that batteries are frequently subjected to vibration and even considerable impacts upon the device being dropped.
- Portable telephones thus have a disadvantage that battery breakage or electrolyte leakage occurs frequently.
- One of the conventional countermeasures to prevent these troubles is to provide a band stretching over both ends of the electrode plate group 2 in order to prevent the offsetting of the positive and negative electrode plates 9, 4 upon being subjected to vibration or impact.
- such band merely restrains the electrode plates and cannot prevent deformation of the leads 13, 14 or their weld joints which may be caused by the impact.
- the present invention is directed to solve the problems pointed out above, and therefore, an object of the invention is to provide a battery with laminate casing which can withstand repeated vibration or large impact, whereby the possibility of occurrence of output failure, electrolyte leakage, or corrosion of the casing is remarkably reduced.
- the present invention provides a battery including:
- the electrode assembly inside the battery is fixed in position even if the portable electronic device in which the battery is mounted is subjected to frequent or repeated vibration or large shock. Therefore, there is no risk in this battery that the positive and negative electrode leads joined to their respective electrode plates are bent or cut, or that the flexible laminate casing is damaged by pointed corners or burrs on the electrode assembly. Accordingly, various troubles, such as short-circuiting across the intermediate metal layer of the casing and the electrode assembly, battery output failure, leakage of electrolyte, and corrosion of the metal layer in the casing by the electrolyte, are all prevented.
- the electrode assembly fixing means may be constructed of a frame surrounding the periphery of the electrode assembly and accommodated within the casing with the electrode assembly.
- the frame includes
- the joints between the positive and negative electrode terminals and their leads, which are mechanically weak, are protected against impacts as they are arranged within the space enclosed by the pair of protective pieces, and are prevented from being deformed or disconnected.
- the casing can be sealed at a nearest possible position to the distal ends of the pair of protective pieces.
- the frame is enclosed in the casing without any free space therein, and the electrode assembly surrounded by the frame is reliably fixed within the casing even in a condition with repeated vibration or large shocks.
- the frame includes a first part consisting of a first half frame and a second part consisting of a second half frame for holding the periphery of the electrode assembly from both sides, the first half frame and the second half frame being integral with each other via a bendable hinge and superposed upon one another, and respectively having a protective piece extending outwards from one end thereof opposite from the hinge, and one of the first half frame and the second half frame having notches therein for passing through the positive and negative electrode terminals to the outside.
- the frame is one piece but can simply be attached to the electrode assembly such as to surround the periphery thereof by bending the frame into two by means of the hinge.
- the cut-outs provided to one of the half frames form through holes when closed by the side edge of other half frame, so as to allow the positive and negative electrode terminals to extend to the outside while fixed in position.
- the first and the second half frames have engagement pieces for making locking engagement with each other on one end thereof opposite from the hinge, so as to securely attach the frame to the electrode assembly.
- the protective pieces of the first and the second half frames come to face each other with a space formed therebetween and are connected via a connector when the first and the second half frames are superposed upon one another via the hinge.
- the rigidity of the protective pieces is enhanced and the space formed therein is hardly deformable.
- the joints between the electrode terminals and their leads are reliably protected from shocks and the electrode assembly is even more securely held in position.
- the frame includes a first part consisting of a first half frame and a second part consisting of a second half frame for holding the periphery of the electrode assembly from both sides, the first half frame and the second half frame being separate from each other and respectively having a protective piece extending outwards from one end thereof, and engagement pieces along more than one side thereof for making locking engagement with each other to couple the first and the second parts when superposed, and one of the first half frame and the second half frame having notches therein for passing through the positive and negative electrode terminals to the outside.
- this construction enables easier fabrication of the frame.
- the electrode assembly fixing means is a frame surrounding the periphery of the electrode assembly and accommodated within the casing with the electrode assembly.
- the frame includes
- the frame covers at least one end face and both side faces of the rectangular electrode assembly within the casing, protects the casing from being damaged by pointed corners or burrs on the electrode assembly, and prevents short-circuiting across the electrode assembly and the metal layer in the casing made of laminate sheet. Further, the frame can be attached to the electrode assembly by simply spreading the pair of legs, causing the abutment portion to warp, and inserting the electrode assembly between the pair of legs of the frame, with the electrode terminals being passed through the through holes.
- the frame has a more simplified construction covering only three sides of the electrode assembly, resulting in a decrease in material cost.
- the pair of protective pieces have a length extending to a portion near a joint between the positive and the negative electrode leads and the casing.
- the casing can be sealed at a nearest possible position to the distal ends of the pair of protective pieces.
- the frame is enclosed in the casing without any free space therein, and the electrode assembly surrounded by the frame is reliably fixed within the casing even in a condition with repeated vibration or large shocks.

- the frame 54 has no support frames 42, 43, the connector plates 57, 58 are formed instead to retain the electrode assembly 2 in position, as well as to cover the corners on one end of the electrode assembly 2.
- a reduction in material cost is achieved due to the omission of the support frames 42, 43, and attachment of the frame 54 to the electrode assembly 2 is further facilitated.
- FIG 8 is a perspective view illustrating a battery according to a third embodiment of the invention, in which an insulating spacer 59 is attached to the electrode assembly 2.
- the insulating spacer 59 is provided to one end face of the electrode assembly 2 where the positive electrode terminal 10a and the negative electrode terminal 7a are located, and is formed to have a U-shaped cross-section as shown in the perspective view of Figure 9, so that it does not contact the non-aqueous electrolyte.
- Polypropylene or other resin having a higher melting point than the resin layer of the inner side of the laminate casing 1 is used for the insulating spacer 59.
- Holes 61, 62 for respectively passing through the positive electrode terminals 10a and the negative electrode terminals 7a are formed in the bottom 60 of the spacer 59.
- the spacer 59 has side walls 63 standing upright from both sides of the bottom 60 to cover the positive electrode terminals 10a and the negative electrode terminals 7a.
- the side walls 63 are high enough to nearly reach the resin sheet 17, with which the leads 13, 14 are joined to the laminate casing 1.

- the leads 13, 14 are preliminarily provided with a piece of resin sheet 17 at predetermined locations on both sides thereof, so as to insulate the metal layer in the laminate sheet from the leads 13, 14, and to ensure reliable sealing, which entails application of heat, of the laminate casing through the leads 13, 14.
- Figure 12 is a cross-sectional view showing the electrode assembly 2 enclosed in the casing 1.
- the insulating spacer 59 is made of a resin having a higher melting point than that of the casing 1, so that the sealing of the two laminate sheets of the casing with the leads 13, 14 and the resin sheet 17 interposed therebetween can be made at a nearest possible position to the distal ends of the side walls 63 of the spacer 59.
- the side walls 63 are bent inwards by the laminate sheets and fixedly confined within the cavity having a triangular cross-section defined by one end face of the electrode assembly 2 and the two laminate sheets of the casing 1.
- the electrode assembly 2 is held in position by the spacer 59 at the end of the leads, and restricted from moving within the casing 1 even when subjected to vibration or impact. Displacement of the electrode assembly 2 must be restricted as mentioned above because the leads 13, 14 made of thin metal foil can readily be bent and because the pointed corners of the electrode assembly 2 may damage the resin layer of the laminate casing 1. According to the battery of the invention, the electrode assembly 2 is kept in position as described above, and moreover, the pointed corners of the electrode assembly 2 are covered by the adhesive tapes 64, which are provided for fixing the spacer 59 to the electrode assembly 2. Thus the inside resin layer of the flexible laminate casing 1 is protected from damage caused by a large impact.
- FIG 13 is a perspective view showing a modified example of the above-described electrode assembly 2 before being inserted into the casing 1.
- additional pieces of adhesive tape 67 are provided to either corner of the other end of the electrode assembly 2. With such additional adhesive tapes, should the electrode assembly 2 move within the casing 1, the inside resin layer of the flexible laminate casing 1 is protected from the pointed corners of the electrode assembly 2.
- the tapes 67 are also effective to protect the laminate casing 1 from damage caused by mishandling during the insertion of the electrode assembly into the casing 1.
- 2 separators 12 constructing each of the electrode plate modules 3 may have external dimensions larger than the positive electrode plates 9 and negative electrode plates 4. It should be noted that such arrangement is illustrated in Figure 37 for the convenience of description, but is included in the scope of this embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 14 is a plan view illustrating another type of casing 18 similar to the one shown in Figure 39, and Figure 15 is a cross-sectional view along the line XV-XV of Figure 14.
- end faces of the electrode assembly 2 except the face where the terminals 10a, 7a extend are made to form flat surfaces, so that the electrode assembly 2 can snugly fit into the recess 18b.
- Eight corners of the electrode assembly 2 which are made sharp by the cutting are all covered by the adhesive tapes 68, extending from the spacer 59 on one end of the electrode assembly 2 to the other end thereof.
- the inside resin layer of the laminate sheet is protected from pointed corners or sharp edges of the electrode assembly 2 even when the battery is subjected to vibration or impact.
- the arrangements described above are mainly directed to the protection of the battery from damages caused by displacement of the electrode assembly 2 within the casing 1 or 18 when the battery is subjected to vibration or impact.
- Another problem caused by vibration or impact is that the plurality of stacked electrode plate modules 3 may be offset from each other. This is particularly the case when one of the electrode plates has a larger size than the other, as in the example illustrated in Figure 37. Offsetting of the electrode plate modules 3 may cause a negative electrode plate 4 to contact the positive electrode terminals 10a, resulting in an internal short circuit.
- Figure 17 is a partial cross-section of a portion of the stacked electrode assembly 2 near the positive electrode terminals 10a, given in explanation of a construction for preventing short-circuiting caused by offsetting between the plurality of stacked electrode plate modules 3a to 3c. Since the negative electrode plates 4 protrude outwards further than the positive electrode plates 9, they may contact the positive electrode terminals 10a upon displacement of offsetting of one of the electrode plate modules 3a to 3c.
- the positive electrode terminals 10a at least on one side thereof adjacent the electrode plate modules 3b or 3c, as illustrated by the broken lines in Figure 17, with an insulating film 66 or coating.
- both sides of all positive electrode terminals 10a may be coated with resin to facilitate the fabrication of positive electrode plates 10 and the assembling of the electrode plate modules 3a to 3c.
- the battery with the flexible laminate casing can reliably withstand vibration or impact.
- Figure 18A to Figure 20 illustrate, in sequence, the process steps for fabricating a battery with a flexible laminate casing according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention.

- Figure 20 is a cross-sectional view of the battery taken along the line XX-XX of Figure 18B.
- the electrode assembly 2 shown in Figure 18A is composed of a plurality of stacked electrode plate modules 3 shown in Figure 37 to attain a predetermined voltage or capacity.
- Terminals 10a, 7a of positive and negative electrodes extend from one end and bundled together, with leads 13, 14 respectively joined to the bundles of the terminals.
- This embodiment is another example of the casing 18 shown in Figure 39, wherein a recess 18b is formed in the base part 18a.
- the insulating spacer 69 is formed in one piece of a non-aqueous electrolyte-resistant material having a high melting point such as polypropylene, of which melting point is higher than that of the inside resin layer of the casing 18.
- the spacer 69 has a shape conforming to the space defined by one end face of the electrode assembly 2 where the positive and negative electrode terminals 10a, 7a exist, the cover 18c and the inclined surface 18g of the casing 18.
- the end face of the spacer 69 on the side of the electrode assembly 2 is shaped somewhat smaller than the cross-sectional shape of the electrode assembly 2.
- the spacer 69 has compartments 69a, 69b therein for accommodating each one of the negative and positive electrode terminals 7a, 10a bundled in substantially triangular shapes, apertures 69c, 69d for passing the negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14, and a reinforcing wall 69e or a partition between the two compartments 69a, 69b, all of these being formed in one piece.
- the negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14 are passed through the apertures 69c, 69d so as to accommodate respective terminals 7a, 10a within the compartments 69a, 69b.
- the spacer 69 is mounted to one end face of the electrode assembly 2 as shown in Figure 18B.
- the spacer 69 should be fixed to the electrode assembly 2 with a tape or the like.
- the electrode assembly 2 with the spacer 69 attached thereto is then fitted into the recess 18b of the casing 18, with the leads 13, 14 extending to the outside of the base part 18a through the seal flange 18e.
- the cover 18c is closed, and the opposite sides of the cover 18c are joined to the seal flanges 18d, 18f by applying heat and pressure.
- Liquid electrolyte is then injected into the casing through the opening between the remaining seal flange 18e and one side edge of the cover 18c, and thereafter, the seal flange 18e and the remaining side edge of the cover 18c are joined together by applying heat and pressure to seal the casing 18.
- the battery thus assembled has the resin sheet 17 interposed between the leads and the laminate sheets of the casing 18 at a position nearest possible to the insulating spacer 69, and therefore, when accommodated in the casing 18, the spacer 69 is fixedly enclosed within the space surrounded by one end face of the electrode assembly 2 and the cover 18c and inclined surface 18g of the casing 18, with the reinforcing wall 69e being pressed toward the end face of the electrode assembly 2. Also, as the end face of the spacer 69 on the electrode assembly 2 side is formed slightly smaller than the cross-sectional shape of the electrode assembly 2 as mentioned above, the peripheral edge of the spacer 69 makes contact with the electrode assembly 2.
- the electrode assembly 2 remains fixed, ensuring that leads 13, 14 or casing 18 will not be damaged, and that no short-circuiting will occur across the casing 18 and the electrode assembly 2. Consequently, the battery is free of troubles such as output failure, electrolyte leakage, or corrosion of metal layer in the casing 18 by the electrolyte.
- Figures 21A and 21B illustrate a modified example of the fourth embodiment, in which the electrode assembly 2 enclosed in an envelop-like casing 1 in a fixed state by the use of an insulating spacer 70.
- Figure 21A is a cross-sectional view across a line along the negative electrode lead 13, while Figure 21B is a cross-sectional view across a center line along the length of the battery.
- the negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14 in this battery extend from the electrode assembly 2 at a position in the middle in the thickness direction of the electrode assembly 2. Accordingly, the spacer 70 has a pair of apertures 70b in the middle thereof.
- the spacer 70 has two compartments 70a and a reinforcing wall 70c as a partition for the compartments, similarly to the above-described spacer 69.
- the spacer 70 is attached to the electrode assembly 2 similarly to the spacer 69 to achieve the same effects mentioned above.
- FIG 22 is a cross-sectional view illustrating major parts of a battery, which is another modified example of the fourth embodiment.
- this battery is different from the one shown in Figure 18A through Figure 20 in that negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14 are folded twice within the insulating spacer 69.
- the negative electrode terminals 7a bundled together are joined to the tip of one of the two folded portions 13a, 13b of the negative electrode lead 13, the one 13b being positioned nearer to the end of the battery.
- the positive electrode lead 14 is folded twice likewise.
- this battery has the advantage of flexibility in negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14, which are provided with resiliency by the spring-like structure for absorbing tension which may possibly be applied to the leads from the outside of the casing 18. Therefore, unlike prior art batteries which were susceptible to even a slight external force, this battery withstands such and prevents breakage of electrode leads 13, 14.
- FIG 23 is a cross-sectional view illustrating major parts of a battery, which is another modified example of the fourth embodiment.
- This battery employs a flexible bag-shaped laminate casing 1.
- the negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14 are bent twice within the insulating spacer 70. Accordingly, apart from the effects mentioned above with respect to the battery shown in Figures 21A and 21B, this battery has the advantage of flexibility in negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14, which are provided with resiliency by the spring-like structure for absorbing tension which may possibly be applied to the leads from the outside of the laminate casing 1. Therefore, unlike prior art batteries which were susceptible to even a slight external force, this battery withstands such and prevents breakage of electrode leads 13, 14.
- the insulating spacer 69 or 70 also functions as a protector for the bent portions 13a, 13b of the negative electrode lead 13 and those of the positive electrode lead 14.
- FIG 24 shows a further modified example of the fourth embodiment.
- This battery is provided with a pair of flat spacers 71, 72 as a means for retaining electrode assembly instead of the one-piece insulating spacer 69 or 70.
- the flat spacers 71, 72 are made of a material which is resistant to the electrolyte and has flexibility.
- the opposite corners on one side of the spacers 71, 72 are rounded, while the other sides are straight, so that they make contact with the end face of the electrode assembly 2.
- the two pieces of flexible spacers 71, 72 are bonded together, covering the negative and positive electrode terminals 7a, 10a interposed therebetween.
- the spacers 71, 72 joined together function substantially the same as the insulating spacer 69 or 70 described above, holding the electrode assembly 2 fixedly in position.
- the spacers 71, 72, or electrode fixing means need only be formed in flat shape and can be fabricated at low cost, while offering the same advantages as those of the insulating spacers 69 or 70.
- the spacers can also be formed initially in rectangular shape as shown in Figure 25.
- the pair of spacers 73, 74 shown in the drawing are almost the same as those shown in Figure 24, but are initially formed rectangular and trimmed to have rounded corners on one side as indicated by two dot lines after being joined together.
- These spacers 73, 74, or electrode fixing means while offering the same advantages as the spacers shown in Figure 24, can more readily be positioned with respect to each other when being joined together.
- Figures 26A, 26B and Figures 27A, 27B respectively illustrate further modified examples of the fourth embodiment, which employ insulating spacers 77, 78 as a means for retaining the electrode assembly, which can be manufactured at low cost as compared to the spacer 69 or 70 described above.
- the spacer 77 shown in Figures 26A, 26B is made of a polypropylene flat plate 77a as shown in Figure 26A having a thickness of about 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm.
- the flat plate 77a has grooves 77b, 77c formed therein for allowing it to be bent in directions of the arrows into the shape shown in Figure 26B similar to the insulating spacer 69 or 70 described in the foregoing.
- the spacer 77 thus has a shape, of which cross-section is substantially triangular, corresponding to the space formed by one end face of the electrode assembly 2 encased within the casing 18 and inner faces of the casing 18.
- the spacer 77 also has a pair of slits 77d, 77e for letting the negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14 extend to the outside, and a reinforcing portion 77f which will tightly abut the end face of the electrode assembly 2.
- the triangularly prismatic spacer 77 has a pair of apertures 77g, 77h in one face thereof for passing the negative and positive electrode terminals 7a, 10a.
- the spacers 77 can be fabricated as flat plates 77a at low material cost.
- the insulating spacer 78 shown in Figures 27A, 27B is made of a flat plate 78a similarly to the spacer 77 shown in Figures 26A, 26B.
- the flat plate 78a has grooves 78b, 78c along which it is bent in directions of the arrows into a shape similar to the insulating spacer 69 or 70 described above, as can be seen from Figure 27B.
- the spacer 78 thus has a shape, of which cross-section is substantially triangular, corresponding to the space formed by one end face of the electrode assembly 2 encased within the casing 18 and inner faces of the casing 18.
- the portion between the grooves 78b, 78c serves as a reinforcing portion 78d which will tightly abut the end face of the electrode assembly 2.
- the negative and positive electrode leads 13, 14 are passed through the gap 78e between the opposite sides of the flat plate 78a.
- the spacer 78 also has a pair of apertures 78f, 78g in the reinforcing portion 78d for passing the negative and positive electrode terminals 7a, 10a.
- the spacers 78 can be fabricated as flat plates 78a at low material cost. Moreover, the spacer 78 has an even simpler shape than the spacer 77, its gap 78e readily allowing the leads 13, 14 to be extended to the outside.
- FIG 28 is a perspective view showing a battery being assembled according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention.
- Figure 29 is a cross-sectional view of the same.
- the battery employs the casing 18 shown in Figure 39 and the electrode assembly 2.
- drops of liquid metamorphic olefin resin 80 are applied to part of the bottom of the recess 18b and to the inner face of the cover 18c with a syringe 79 as shown in Figure 28.
- the electrode assembly 2 is then inserted into the recess 18b of the casing 18 as shown in Figure 29, and the cover 18c is closed to contact the base part 18a.
- the seal flanges 18d, 18f along the opposite sides of the base part 18a and the peripheries of the cover 18c are joined by applying heat and pressure. Thereafter, hot plates are contacted locally to the base part 18a and the cover 18c at positions where the metamorphic olefin resin 80 has been applied, so that the resin 80 and the inside resin layer of the base part 18a and the cover 18c melt together.
- the metamorphic olefin resin 80 which is a thermosetting resin, sets as time passes, joining the outer surfaces of the electrode assembly 2 and the bottom of the recess 18b and the inner face of the cover 18c, respectively. Electrolyte is then injected and the casing 18 is sealed in a known manner.
- metamorphic olefin resin 80 metamorphic polypropylene or metamorphic polyethylene is preferable.
- the metamorphic olefin resin 80 may be applied to the outer sides of the electrode assembly 2 instead of on the inner sides of the casing 18. Although the resin is applied at two locations in the example, it is preferable to apply two drops each of the resin at two locations on both sides.
- high frequency or ultrasound may be used instead of the hot plates mentioned above.
- the battery according to this embodiment has a very simple construction and is obtained at low cost, wherein the electrode assembly 2 is directly bonded to the casing 18.
- the battery has the advantage that changes in the number or the size of the electrode plates 4, 9 will not have direct bearing on the process for assembling the battery.
- this embodiment applies also to the case where the bag-shaped flexible laminate casing 1 is used.
- the electrode assembly 2 can directly be bonded to the casing 1 by the same means as described above.
- Figure 30 is a plan view showing the electrode assembly 2 of a battery according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention.
- Figure 31 is a partially broken perspective view of the assembled battery.
- the electrode assembly 2 is provided with an insulating member 81 along one side where the leads 13, 14 extend, such as to cover the burrs on the positive and negative electrode terminals 10a, 7a.
- Strips of tape 82 are attached to the electrode assembly 2 so that the plurality of stacked electrode plate modules 3 are temporarily fixed together.
- a pair of side tapes 83 are attached to the opposite sides along the length of the electrode assembly 2 for covering the burrs on the electrode plates 4, 9 and for protecting same.
- Such tapes are commonly used in prior art.
- the battery of this embodiment utilizes this known construction of electrode assembly, using the side tape 83 which is generally made of metamorphic polypropylene having a low melting point, to cause the side tapes 83 to melt with the inner resin layer of the casing 18. That is, after accommodating the electrode assembly 2 within the casing 18 with the cover 18c being closed onto the base part 18a, and after joining the seal flanges 18d, 18f on both sides of the base part 18a with the peripheries of the cover 18c, heat plates are contacted locally onto the casing 18 at four locations 84 where the side tapes 83 exist. Thus there are formed four molten spots 84 in the side tapes 83 as shown in Figure 31.
- the battery of this embodiment uses the known side tapes 83 as an adhesive to achieve a very simple construction and a reduction in cost, while ensuring that the electrode assembly 2 is directly bonded to and fixed to the casing 18 via the side tape 83. Therefore, in addition to the effects described above, the battery has the advantage that changes in the number or the size of the electrode plates 4, 9 will not have direct bearing on the process for assembling the battery.
- the tape 82 for holding the electrode plates together may also be utilized, because it is commonly made of the same resin as that for the side tape.
- high frequency or ultrasound may be used instead of the hot plates mentioned above. It should be noted that, this embodiment applies also to the case where the bag-shaped flexible laminate casing 1 is used.
- the electrode assembly 2 can directly be bonded to the casing 1 by the same means as described above.
- FIG 32 is a perspective view illustrating a battery according to a seventh embodiment of the present invention, before being assembled.
- the battery adopts an existing electrode assembly 2, but its casing 87 includes, in addition to the base part 87a, recess 87b, cover 87c, seal flanges 87d to 87f, and inclined surface 87g, abutment surfaces 87h formed in the inclined surface 87g perpendicularly to the bottom of the recess 87b at three locations between and on the outer sides of the electrode leads 13, 14.
- the battery has the advantage that no particular process is required for fixing the electrode assembly 2 such as applying heat with hot plates.
- FIG 33 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view showing a battery according to an eight embodiment of the present invention.
- the battery employs an insulating spacer 70 as a means for retaining the electrode assembly and a flexible laminate casing 1. After accommodating the electrode assembly 2 within the casing 1, heat of about 150 to 300°C and pressure of about 0.2 N/mm 2 to 2N/mm 2 are applied to the battery for 0.5 to 10 sec to bond the inner resin layer of the casing 1, which has a lower melting point than the outer layer thereof, with the contacting portion 88 of the spacer 70.
- the insulating spacer 70 having much higher rigidity than the side tape 83 can more reliably retain the electrode assembly 2 in position.
- the insulating spacer 69 shown in Figures 19 and 22 can likewise be joined to the casing 18 by applying heat and pressure.
- FIG 34 is a perspective view showing a battery according to a ninth embodiment of the present invention, before being accommodated within a casing 1 or 18.
- the battery employs two pieces of fixing sheet 89 which is either adhesive tape or heat-sensitive tape attached to the opposite ends of the electrode assembly 2.
- the tape 89 is bonded to the electrode assembly either by any bonding means or heat/pressure application means, and joined to the casing 1, 18, or 87 by applying heat and pressure.
- the electrode assembly 2 is directly bonded to the casing 1, 18, or 87 via the tape 89 and is retained in position with a simple and low-cost construction. Therefore, in addition to the effects described above, the battery has the advantage that changes in the number or the size of the electrode plates 4, 9 will not have direct bearing on the process for assembling the battery.
- This embodiment is particularly suitable for fixing a larger size electrode assembly 2.
- the present invention is applicable not only to the stacked electrode assembly 2 as has been described in the foregoing, but also to a coil-shaped electrode assembly in which positive and negative electrodes are wound around with an intervening separator and pressed into a flat shape.
- the battery according to the present invention has an electrode assembly fixing means. Therefore, the electrode assembly is held in position even when the portable electronic device in which the battery is installed is subjected to frequent or repeated vibration or large impact. Therefore, the positive and negative leads bonded respectively to the positive and negative electrode plates will not be bent or disconnected, and there is no risk that flexible laminate casing is broken by pointed burrs of the stacked electrode plates, or that a short circuit is formed across the intermediate metal layer of the casing and the electrode plate. Thereby, risks of battery output failure, leakage of electrolyte, or corrosion of the metal layer in the casing are all prevented.
- the present invention provides a thin, light-weight, and reliable battery.
